Maybe SLC Punk isn't exactly an accurate portrayal of my life in alternative culture, Hell, maybe it isn't exactly an accurate portrayal of anyone's life in alternative culture, but seeing a movie where people belonging to alternative culture are actually characters? That was a massive deal to me growing up, and this alone would make me a fan of SLC Punk, but even aside from that there is its unique filming style, solid acting presence and intense philospohical questions to push it over the line into worthwhile. Final rating:★★★★ - Very strong appeal. A personal favourite.
